  • Patent number: 10214216
    Abstract: A method for operating a motor vehicle by detecting a destination input by a motor vehicle occupant; and determining which residual range of the motor vehicle will be indicated at the destination. If the determined residual range is less than a predetermined threshold value, the motor vehicle is operated in a consumption optimizing mode during which the motor vehicle is operated to carry out automatic measures for reducing the consumption of the motor vehicle until reaching the destination.
